I'd agree Mike, that's a distinct possibility.
Hi John-Peter,
A bit more googling - Mrs Minna Elsey, Green Shutters, Bakers Wood, Denham January 1957. Minna is an unusual christian name of which I've found the following possibility: a Minna Votoria Elsey (nee Ackermann) was a pupil of the very upmarket Bedales School in Petersfield (an independent liberal boarding school) from 1926 to 1931, she died in 2012. Bakers Wood in Denham appears from Google StreetView to be a private gated housing estate to which StreetView doesn't have access.
John-Peter,
John Bacton Penrose, September 1957. Despite its current appearance, I believe this on the left is The Red House, Gold Hill Common, Chalfont St. Peter.
This postcard (Postmark 1960) shows the group of houses from the opposite direction.
